Wellness
Wellness is more than being free from illness, it is a dynamic process of change and growth.
"...A state of complete physical, mental, and social well-being, and not merely the absence of disease or infirmity."
- The World Health Organization
Acupuncture has become increasingly popular as a form of holistic and alternative medicine, known to alleviate pain and help restore health back to the body. In Chinese medicine and yogic philosophy, it is believed that when there is unresolved emotional or physical pain that it can create a blockage or imbalance of energy flow, in turn manifesting as illness. By placing small needles at particular meridian points throughout the body, the flow of energy can be balanced, alleviating pain and restoring health. Acupuncture can also be vital in the treatment of fertility and very often times can aid in the success of pregnancy. Acupuncture treatments are virtually pain-free and can be very relaxing.
Reiki is a universal healing energy that brings the body, physically and energetically, back into balance enhancing our own natural way of healing. Reiki helps to release blockages of energy, aiding in the healing of past emotional pain. The receiver is not actually healed by the practitioner, but by the universal life energy itself and its balancing effects. Since energy is a natural life force energy, it can not harm anyone and is gentle yet powerful. By simply placing the hands-on various positions on the head and body, for several minutes each, the energy flows through the body restoring it to health.
